Mapping US Climbing

This was fun. I've been climbing for quite a few years and MountainProject.com is one of my
primary sources for info on routes, areas, conditions, etc. - 'beta' in climber
speak. Then I realized that MountainProject has an incredible data set!
Thousands of areas, routes, ratings, user contributed info, the list goes
on and on. So to get things started, I worked with MountainProject to
produce this interactive map showing the number of climbing
routes of different types across the US. There is more data in store,
so look forward to future visualizations!

It was also good to get acquainted with d3.js and GeoJSON
for building interactive maps.
